It was so wonderful to catch up, even when I acted therapist while flicking through the book… I’ll never now be able to look at those (new and improved) trousers without chuckling…

Thanks Pete! Great to meet you properly. Sorry to miss your GCSE storytelling session (I don’t teach GCSE, part timers hey?). I heard great things though!

He was such a gentleman, and his session was full of good humour and razor sharp scholarship. Definitely a highlight of my history year!

Yes! A question by @willbaileywatson.bsky.social made me think harder about how my enquiry on Frostquake supports pupils’ understanding of environmental history. The brilliance of @michaeldoron.bsky.social ’s superb conference environment made me feel safe to say ‘I don’t know yet!’

I think I may have been present at your coronation as Queen of the Reformation? Much like the bishop of Carlisle in 1559?

One of my absolute favourites. Sofonisba just *works* as a depth study that tells us about the bigger story of the Italian Renaissance.
